If ever a car owed its existenceto enthusiasm, it is the AstonMartin, Right back at thebeginning it is unlikely thatthose engaged in itsmanufacture were reallYinterested in, or influenced bY'thoughts of possible sales.

It happened that a comPetentengineer called Bamford hadsmall but useful premisesexcellently equipped to make"one-off" any mechanicalcontrivance, and he was deePlYinterested in sports cars, mainlYof the Singer type.

One enthusiast for Singerswas a big, intelligent andextremely well-manneredEtonian, Lionel Martin.When the war finished he tookpart in almost everY longdistance trial for which one ofthe new "Light" cars or"Cyclecars" could be entered.His vigorous methods, allied toa fervent desire to geteverything possible from theengine, led to highly excitingtrouble. On one occasionthe engine of his car made verYexpensive noises on the wellknown trials hill, Beggars Roost.

Finding rePair imPossible,Lionel proteeded to change his

-

socks, put on an Etonian tie and

brush himself down' beforestrolling calmlY to the nearestvillage for technical assistance'

Such adventures led to a

meeting with Bamford, and talkswhich iesulted in the birth of an

idea for a new design tomaintain the Performance,but delete the faults, of theSinger,

The name "Aston Martin"was evolved from Martin's o'utm

name and that of the hill-climbat Aston Clinton inBuckinghamshire where Martinhad done well before the FirstWar with his Singer.

Lionel had manY friends,which maY exPlain whY names

-

and personalities meant so muchin Aston Martin historY'

There was Bertie KensingtonMoir, the cheerY driver of the

big Straker-squire; Count LouisZdorowski, verY rich, delightfullYtemperamental, of Polish originand outstanding character, and

Clive GalloP, steePed in theracing law is set bY France and

the "Aeroic age", And all these

took a Personal interest in the

Aston Martin, creating theIegend as known todaY'

At nearlY every race meetingat Brooklands from 1921

onwards there were AstonMartins, the drivers beingZborowski, Kensington Moir,Gallop, Eyston, or Douglas,-andthougi theY attained no strikingdegree of success against theirprincipal rival the A.C., theY

were never out of the Picture'Furthermore the cars wereextremelY attractive both indesign and shaPe, and thatcorrnted from the enthusiast'spoint of view.

HistorY justifies the effort inany case since the records showthit Bertelli and Pat Driscollwon the Le Mans "Rudge

Whitworth CouPe Bienniale"easily in 1932, that Driscoll andPen Hughes were second forthat same CuP in 1'933, and that

the two Charles, BrackenburYand Martin, won again in 1935'

As 1935 drew to its close

things were not too haPPY withthe firm. It seemed obvious thatracing was PlaYing too large a

nart in its activities, absorbingioo much money, while cars

with saloon bodies were moreand more in demand even in the

world of sports cars. The second

stage of Aston's historY hadcome to an end'

But any storY of the earlYdays cannot close without one

incident. In 1937 two fervententhusiasts, Mortimer Morris-Goodall and Robert Hichens,ran at Le Mans, the Z-litre carbeing Robert's own' And theY*or1h" Rudge CuP for the thirdtime in dramatic stYle. Havingfought into the lead for the CuP

the car was going well when a

valve fell into a cYlinder, nearlYwrecking the engine. Robert,who was driving, naturallY did

not think it worth going on -after all it was his Private car'

But the Point was that onlY one

hour of th" ."c" remained, so

the Cup would still be wonorovided the machine wasrunning when the finishing flagflew. Of this Robert naturallYL""* nothing, But his "control"did.

There followed a real disPIaY

of sportsmanshiP' Anothercompetitor, DorothY StanleY-

Turner, volunteered to carrY a

message to Robert during her

run wilh an M.G. and did so'

iltert, puzzled bY what seemed

io U" "r^uUsurd

order, restarted

the engine just as "Mort"Morris-Goodall arrived toemohasize the necessitY to

description of the Aston'sprogress to the pit. But it gotthere, the cylinder was put outof action, and the car restartedso that it crossed the line exactlyas the flag signalled the finish,

The second World Warchanged everything. It wasn't somuch the bomb damage, but thesocial and economic upheavalswhich upset Lagonda and AstonMartin. Lagonda wanted to gointo production with a new six-cylinder twin-cam engine, and anall-independent chassis, whichW.O. Bentley thought was rightfor the postwar world. [The V-12design, incidentally, had beenabandoned completely.l AstonMartin just wanted to go on -well, just go on being AstonMartin.

In both cases it was a surerecipe for financial disaster.Alan Good put Lagonda in thehands of the receiver in 1947,and R.G. Sutherland just foundit impossible to get Claude Hill's'Atom'[and its new high-pushrod four-cylinder 2litreengineJ into small-scaleproduction. At this point, theamazingly patriotic character -and I use the word 'character'advisedly - of David Browncame on to the scene, AlmostIike waving a wand,David Brown decided to buy upboth concerns ['for a bit of fun',as he has later admitted), andbefore the end of the year theywere under his control.This text was taken from a publicationwritten by Sammy Davis in 1950.

They even intruded intoGrand Prix racing in 1922, witha 16-valve, ohc engine owingits design mainly to CliveGallop, He did some M1b-typenegotiations with his old firmPeugeot, returning with ascaled-down version of the latestPeugeot racing engine design.

But it was the side-valve-engined car nicknamed "Bunny"which did most to create thelegend, There was an intensebattle for official records at thattime, Towards the end of 1922"Bunny" was taken toBrooklands to attack records butthe plan for the run was kepttop-secret, Outwardly itappeared to be an attack on the"Double L2-hour" record, that isa record run for 12 hours on twoconsecutive days, not of courserecognized'as International butimportant nationally. To makethe attempt more exciting, A,C,swere also running, apparentlyfor the same record, the twocars having depots full ofmechanics within sight of eachother.

The Aston took the 15, 76, 17,18 and 19-hour records, makingthe Aston the first small carever to capture World's records,Our average was just over 70.Naturally there was vigorouscompetition between the A.C.and the Aston Martin since bothcompeted for the same market,

In 1923 Lionel determined totackle the 1,500 c.c. class hourrecord with a view to putting100 miles in that time before theA,C. could. The 16-valve ohcpower unit was fitted to astrange chassis, exaggeratedly"crab" tracked, with an evennarrower body - as narrow whenviewed end on as to suggest whatit was named, a "Razor Blade".This machine became as famousas "Twiggy" for the same reason,and was the inspiration of the carmotif used in the BritishRacing Drivers' Club badge.

Many A.M./s were nicknamedat this time, for example|,C. Douglas' "Nigger",R.C. Morgan's "Green Pea" tomention but two. But though thefame of Aston Martin rested ona fim foundation, and thoughthe cars ran with honour inmany races at home and abroadthe financial situation wasimpossible, though LordCharnwood did all he could. Soin 1925 the first phase of themarque ended, The second wasvery different,

The revival in 1926 with theaid of Lord Charnwood and TheHon. lohn Benson brought inthe Birmingham firm ofRenwick and Bertelli, In fact thewhole character of Astonscontinued simply because of theman most of us knew as "ourBert".

The new works at Felthamwas very different from thatused in the infancy of AstonMartins, just as the entire carcarrying the name was different.But, as usual, there was aproblem, Since finance did notallow the kind of advertising

campaign a new car needed,obviously racing offeredadvantages. But the car wasintended to be a sports car to beused in normal motoring by itsowner, to have speed enough forthe job but reliability as its chiefasset.

David Brown threw enormousenergy into his Aston Martinconcern resulting in themanufacture of DB AstonMartins from the DB1 throughto the DBSVS

In 1972 ComPanYDevelopments Ltd acquiredAston Martin-Lagonda for S100

and accepted their debts.This comPany continueddevelopment of the VB Saloonbut more recentlY Aston Martin-Lagonda has been taken over bY

another organisation which hasrapidly developed the VB Saloonand also produced severalexciting new rnodels which arenow being activelY Promotedworld-wide again.

To regress for but a moment,it is not possible to relate thestory of this great marquewithout a brief look at theillustrious racing historY of theDavid Brown Astons and thecurrent Astons being develoPedfor Endurance racing, inparticular the illusive Le Mans,the occasion of Astons greatestvictory.

It started when the PrototYPeDB1 won the Spa 24 hour racein 1948 and finished with thewin by the Project 214 atMontlhery in 1-963, Astons have,of course, been raced PrivatelYsince then in particular the VBthat ran at Le Mans,in the mid-1970s and now the NimrodAstons.

1959 was the golden Year for

Aston Martin on the racingcircuits. In that Year AstonMartin won the Le Mans24 hour race and also the WorldChampionship after several nearmisses. The Project 214 wasleading at Le Mans in 1"963

when they returned from theIACE.

1963 was the end of thedecade of Sports-Racing Cars,the like of which we will neversee again. The battles betweenMercedes, |aguar, Aston Martin,Femari were to be no more as

regulations changed andcompanies were unable tosustain the continued enormousinvestment. Oh, for the GoodOld Days!

BATHURSTHILL CLIMB

2nd MaY, 1982

This Hill Climb was organisedby the Bathurst Light Car CIub,and was on the Mt Panoramaracing circuit using the hill fromthe end of conrod back uP to thetop straight, About 10 memberswere in attendance from our CIubwith about 70 cars in all.

The Club Social SecretarYcame up with his usual highclass hotel accommodation forSaturday night.

President Bill drove uP onSunday morning in the Ferrariand put in some verY good timesconsidering his rear tYreswere bald.

Bernie and ]eannie Leimeistercame from DaPto to give theiropen wheeler Renmax somequick runs.

John and Sue HaIl in the redDB4GT had some runs at the hillbut the rare engine was notin tune.

Lionel and Gail Walker wereconfident that the XK would do

well and, as usual, it did. What a

great club car.Roland and Graham Clark had

the AC Cobra at the event buthad some trouble keePing it in a

straight line.The weather was wonderful

with bright winter sun after a

cool morning. The light CarClub have club rooms at the footof the hill climb and lots ofparking for cars. About 15 cars

would do the climb and wait at

the top and all drive down theway they had gone uP.

Starters were Clive and C.B,,Aston, ]im and Val, Geoff and

Jan in their respective Scimitars;Bruce and Sandra in the blackDino, and Penny and myself inthe little blue Porsche.Those who didn't risk the driveup with us maddies wereLeonard Madar and family andRoland Clark in his AMV8.

The expressway to Newcastlewas all too much for Clive -he waited for us at Tamworth.

Sunday morning the chamoiswere out for a quick wipe overthen on to Nundle for thejudging. About 40 km ofwinding back road was a delightat 90-100 but Clive once againfound it all too much andopened out the DB - this timewith ]im right behind - and infront-andbehind,,.

The day lacked something -a motorcana might have been astabilising influence. The ladieswere bored stiff by Iunchtime,a situation which might havebeen avoided by thearrangement of a Ladies Event.

I haven't seen any results asyet, but of our group whoentered, I am sure we weren't inthe running! Not for quality ofcars, but for lack of sufficientclasses!!l As:-

GAffi$[lruilARE YOU INSURED?

Personal Accident insurance is com-pulsory for all open events, and for clos-ed race meetings. This means that alldrirers and officials at those meetingsre covered for benefits as prescribed inthe Manual of Motor Sport.

For all motorkhmas, and all closedevents other than race meetings,insurance is optional. For competitors itis quite easy - they make the choicethemelves, and indicate on the entryfom whether they want to be coveredo{ not. lf so, they pay the fee and that is

the end of it.

For officials it is not so easy. They relyupon the orgmisers to look after theirint€rests and we note with regret thatmmy organisers do not PaY the fee tohave their officials insured. Formotorkhanas. all officials can be

insured for $4.00 per daY not each,but to cover everyone; for the otherevents for which cover is optional, alloffrcials can be covered for $l0per day.

Of course, it is necessary lhat organiserscompile a list of officials md theirdesignation, but one would expect thatthis would be the case anYwaY.

We urge organisers of closed rallies,speed evenls and motorkhans to giYe

comideration to providing som protec-tion for the people who help mak€ ithappen for competitors.

The other message of course is to those

officials who may have been under some

illusion - check with the organisers ofthe event at which you are bfficiating inorder to determine whether or not you

have Personal Accident insurance coverwhilst on the event.

CAMS OFFICERSA number of appoinlment\ Io variouspositions within the Confederation'sstructure have been confirmed by theNational Council.First. Harry Firth has been appointed tothe Eligibility Committee. Hany was

formerly CAMS National Chief Scrut-ineer, and his expertise will continue tobe put to good use in this new role.Garry Boyd and Peler Warneford have

been appointed Regional ScrutineersiGany for Victoria, Tasmania apd SouthAustralia, and with Peter looking afterNew South Wales and Queensland.Both are well known to racing com-pelitors as Chief Scrutineers at majormeetings.David Rapley, formerlY a member ofthe Historic Car Committee and theHistoric Car Classification Comittee,hm been appointed Technical Officer/Historic Cars. This is a new position,and David will be resPonsible forspecific technical advice to theAdministration pertaining to historicactivity.

PEKING TO PARISWe have been advised bY Mr. WyltonDickson that the Peking to Paris Motor-ing Challenge organised under theauipices of the French Automobile

SDort Federalion, ha: had to beposlponed. This has been broughlibour principally due to the inability tonegotiite appropriate passage throughthe Soviet Union.Mr. Dickson reports the Soviet state-

ment, which we Pass on without com-ment -"We knew nothing about this event

until Yesterday and we told Mr.Dickson two years ago it would be

difficult. "

SCRUTINEERINGScrurineering at race meetings variesfrom circuit to circuit. Machine exam-iners are of course concerned withsafety and with the integrity of the veh-

icle; this is fairly consistent throughoutthe whole of the sport.

On the other hand, matters of eligibilityare many and varied, and at eachmeeting it is simply not possible forscrutineers to check every item whichmay render a ca ineligible.

However, the items mentioned here-

under are those which scrutineers are

SAFETYFor a sport which is outwardlY con-scious of the protection of participantsand spectators, it does seem that fromtime to time some of us engage in unsafepractices. For :xample, one often sees

iars parked in Paddock areas withwheels and various assemblies removed,supported only by a single trolley jack.Cliarly, good working practice wouldrequire the use of stmds at all times.wi have all seen trolley jacks left withhandles projecting beyond the cars,waiting to trip someone or worse stillbeing bumped bY someone movingequipment past them, and thus causing

the car to fall.There are other practices which couldwell be reviewed - cleaning engines

with petrol for example is most huar-dous, particularly when there are othercars around, to say nothing of people'

At lhe AGP meeting at \A anneroo in1979, it was noted at the conclusion ofthe race, with a ca parked in a covered

area surrounded bY members of the

public, one crew cleaned the engine mdiransmission by upending a container of100 Octane fuel over the car. A recipe

for disaster if ever there was one.

There is also the question of casual

refuelling practices, which combinedwith inadequate fire protection, can

lead at best to damage to a car, and atworst to injury to the crew and

bystanders.These are things that one cannotregulate for they Probably come

under the heading of common sense'

We all do things sometimes without suf-ficient thought. It may well be that you

will notice something which is unsafe,

but which the people carrying out thatwork, haven't really thought about'You owe it to them, to Yourself and torhe "port

to draw unsafe practice' to the

attention of People concerned.

ground must be maintained."7. For the greater part, the GrouP D

regulations were taken directly fromthe old FIA Group 5, and fromvaious IMSA requirements. Furtherclarifications andzor interpretationswill be published as potential prob-lem areas are drawn to our attention.

8. Regulation 3.5 has been amended -the maximum height of a hood scooP

' is 5.5"/14cm, trd not 5.5cm as

printed.9. Regulation 3.7 now reads -"All windows of other thm glass

must be clear, transparent and freeof any colouring. Glass windowsmust not be coloured or tinted afterproduction.The material for all windows exceptfor the windscreen is free. If a wind-screen is constructed of glass, onlylaminaled safety type glast ir permit-ted. Windscreens may be replaced bytransparent material of adequatestrength, e.g. Perspex or Lexan, ofno less than 6m thickness."

CLASSIFIED RALLYDRIVERS

The determination of classification ofrally drivers, details of which appear atpage 114 of the 1982 Manual, have beenvried with the changing points scorefor the Australian Rally Championship.Puagraph l.l now reads -"Has gained either -(a) at least 12 points in either of the two

previous year's Australian RallyChampionship, or

(b) a total of 15 points in the twoprevious Australian Rally Cham-pionships.

RADIATOR OYERFLOWScrutineers in Victoria have asked thatwe draw to the attention of competitorsin race meetings the hazard whichresults from radiators overflowing andspilling water onto the track. whilst nolegislation to require catch tanks onradiator overflow pipes is proposed,competitors are asked to takeappropriate action to ensure that theircas do not create m undue hzud forother competitors.

FORD FALCONThe "4 bolt" cylinder block currently inuse in XD model Ford Falcons con-tinues to be acceptable until 3lstDecember 1982. lt should be noted thatsuch concession will not necessarily flowon to the XE model.

CLI.IBMANREGULATIONS

Clubman regulation 3.2(b) has been

mended, and with effect from lst April1982 will read -"The gearbox. Gearboxes derived fromtrmsaxles, e.g. Hewland, or from frontwheel drive cars, are prohibited Thegears ae free, provided that the numberof ratios remains the same as originallysupplied in that geilbox. Modificationsmiy be made to the outer ends of the

input and output shafts, and to the gear-

box casing for adaption purposes. "Regulation 3.3(c) has been mended,and now reads -

expected to check each time a car ls

exmined.

GT CARS - GROUP DWith the new Group D getting off theground, a few pointers are in order.l. Log books for GrouP D cars should

be forwarded to Melboume forappropriate endorsement. If the carhas changed, new photograPhsshould be included, together with a

note of any other modificationsmade.

2. At:regularion 4.2(a), rhere is provi-sion for "an approved-engiite" to befitted to an approved model of car.Competitors contemplating u\ing anengine other thar the original equip-ment item must check and get CAMSapproval prior to commencing con-struction.

3. Regulation 3.3 now reads -"No modification may be made tothe series produced body shell unlessspecifically provided for in theseregulations. Rocker panels maY bealtered for ducting purposes."

4. Regulation 3.9{e) now reads -"An inner panel is required to pre-vent anything thrown uP bY thewheels entering the cockpit. This canbe achieved by any means at all, so

long as the habitacle is totally sealed

from the wheel well area. "5. Regulation 3.10(g) permits certain

TECHNICALENQI.IIRIES

As part of CAMS'service, members areentitled to contact our various officeswirh a view to obtaining advice onmotor sporl matler.. On occaions.these enquiries are ol a highly technicalnature and it is inevitable that some-times confusion aises as to which ques-tion was asked, md what the ilswerutu there is thc question lhe enquirerposed, there is the question that he

thinks he asked, there is what theCAMS oflicer heud, and what hethink: he heard. And when the ansuer i\given, the same factors enter into thematter.Because of the possibility of confusion,it must be clearly understood that noresponsibility can be taken for advice ordeterminations given other than inwiting.Questions of a technical nature arerecorded by means of a file note, as trethe answers; it is strongly suggested thatshould a participant wish to take someaction on the basis of answers or advicegiven, that a copy of the notes of thatdiscussion should be reqtrested - atsome time in the future it may beimportant to have a record of what wasactually discussed.In order to re-inforce this, National

Competition Rule 159 has been amend-ed by the inclusion of the word "writ-ten" before the word "determination"where it occurs in line l.It is hoped that this change in theadministrative policy will further 6sistcompetitors in the preparation of theirCATS.

LATE DR. D. HILLRacing members in Western Australiahave suffered the loss of Dr. Doug Hill,who for many years was CAMS' Med-ical Assessor in that State. Dr. Hill diedrecently after a short illness. He was wellknown as a friend of the sport, ild wasalways pleased to co-operate with thoselicence holders who came in contactwith him. He will be missed by ourmembers in that State, and to his fmilyand associates, CAMS extends the sym-pathies of the sport.

TRIBUNESWe report that Mr. Eric Leighton hasretired as CAMS Tribune in WesternAustralia after mily years service to the.prort. tric serred in manl capacitiesover his Iong trsociation with CAMS,including Chairman of the W.A. StateCuncil, Stewad and more recently as

Tribune. He was alsc one of three per-sons who in difficult times in 1972,helped bring about a re-establishment ofthe State Council. It is unfortunate thathis experience md wise counsel will nolonger be available to us.

NEW BOOKMembers will have heard of "TheMotoring Enthusiast's Little BlackBook" published by Gilltrap's AutoMrrseum -

ROLL-OVERPROTECTION

Appendix C at Pilt 10, notes that roll-over protection is not required at eventsbelow National Open level on bodilyunmodified fixed roof closed crs (seeparagiaph 1.5, page 342 of the 1982Mmual). It should be noted that Tour-ing cars which have appertures in theturret, for example a sun roof, whetheroriginal equipmenr or olherwise, arereguded as being structurally modiliedfor-the purpose of this regulation, andtre not subject to that exemption.

ONE MINUTEPENALTY

A penalty of one minute added to therace time applies for jumping the startof a race, and may be applied for otherinfringements under the SupplementaryRegulations. Whilst it is required thatthis penalty be advised to the com-petitor's pit crew, there has until nowbeen no general notification that thepenalty has been incurred.With effect from lst May 1982, theremust be available for display to the fielda boad similar to the "Ctr stalled"sign, which carries the words " l Minutepenalty". This will be shom to alldrivers in the race in conjunction with

the number boud used with the blackflag. The purpose of this is to indicatenot only to the driver who ha beenaffected, but to others who may be rac-ing against him, the fact that a penaltywill be applied.

RALLY ACCIDENTSfrom time to time car5 compeling inCAMS authorised rallies are involved inaccidents which result in damage to property. This may range from injuredstGk to damaged fences, or even todmage to a car driven by someone notconnected with the event. In all cae., itis incumbent upon the crew of the car toreport the accident to the next controlofficial, who should then in turn reportto the Secretary of the event. If the car iswithdrawn from the event as a result ofthe accident, then a report should belodged with the Secretary by the crewmembers as soon tr possible.Unfortunately, some competitors arenot reporting accidents, which makes.ettlcment of claims by third panies verydi[licult and dram out - rhis in turnadversely affects the sport's stmding,particularly in rural areas.

STANDINGREGULATIONS

Race Meeting Standing Regularion 6.7hm been amended, and now reads"The starter motor as fitted to the carmd using only the inboard battery shallbe the sole means of starting the car atthe commencement of the race. Thepenalty for breach of this regulationshall be I minute added to the race timefor the competitor concerned."This now permits crs to be push startedin the pit lane area, without penalty.

DIINNER ATMOONEY MOONEYWORKERS CLUB

a*r@Mooney Mooney Workers Club"said ]ohn Williams, "We'll be inthat - but where the hell isMooney Mooney?" was thereply. Everybody was to meet atthe Kentucky Fried Chickenhouse at Asquith, but as I wasflying until late [as usual!J wecouldn't make the take-off time- I assume everybodY else did.

A quick look at the GregorY'sconfirmed my fears - MooneYMooney was a five-day camelride away from HurstvillelAh well - we may get there fordessert and port. PassingConcord towards the RYdebridge we collected a

thunderstorm which staYed withus all the way to MooneYMooney. It rained so hard Ithink it must have used uP theworld's supply!

We finally arrived - ]oan a

quivering heap in the Ieft handseat - she never knew a ValiantGalant could go so fast. Horrors!

- not a single recognisable car inthe car park, A quick check ofthe date revealed it was not Yet1st April. Must be the rightplace - be brazen and walk in -ielief ! The gang had arrived andwere just settling into theirSth gin and tonic or whatever,

The food was as good as themenu read and everYbodY'sappetite was well satisfied andthat included a "freebY" bananasplit which was shared equallYaround the table.

During the meal a 3-Piecegroup entertained us (and theCIub Members)with music thatbrought an evil glint into

]im Peters' eyes - it obviouslYreminded him of a missPentyouth! AII the Workers Clubmembers were dancing to a

well-rehearsed repertoire and attimes they reminded me of a

well-practised drill-squad' The triopromised some Rock n' Roll forihe city slickers who had invadedtheir Club and true to word,burst forth with tunes from the1958 era. We all took advantageand jived, twisted, and generallYcavorted around the room untilexhausted.

The journey home for ]oanand me was quite Painless -thankfully it had stoPPed raining

- and the distance did not seemquite so far. Our thanks to Sue

and ]ohn for the organisationand to the Mooney MooneYWorkers CIub for their hospitality.We look forward to the nextdinner evening on 27th FebruarYwhich is to be held close to homeat the Singapura Restaurant.

THIRLMERE TRAIN MUSEUMAn extremely pleasant day wasspent by a goodly number ofclub members at the TrainMuseum at Thirlmere, nearPicton. We were blessed withbrilliant weather and I for onewas most surprised by themagnitude and variety of theexhibits - including a prisoncarriage complete withindividual loos (holes allowingdirect access to the track below!]'

We were delighted-to seeBernie and ]eannie Leimeisterfrom Dapto who arrived in thethird DB4, The only other'Club'car present was my 246 Dino,the other brethren arriving in anassortment of family hacks.Dino Capozzi attended his firstclub event but came with CliveSanderson as Dino's Lancia hadbeen stolen.

Night outat the

Singapura Restaurant

A great night was had by all.The food was plentiful to saythe least, the company wasexcellent, and it was lovely tosee Dr Stephen Muller andDr Piort Fast with their charmingcompanions. I hope theycan find the time in very busyschedules to come along moreoften,

The way we all lingered at]im Peters'he must have thoughthe included breakfast in hisoffer of coffee afterwards,

The Ladies who went to thepowder-room during the latterhalf of the evening must havethought they had walked in onan episode of "Days of ourLives", some of us (includingmyself) went back twice to hearfurther episodes. I wonder howit all ended???

Oran Park South CircuitSupersprint,29th November 1981

This event was organized bythe Ford Car Club of NSW, andattracted over a hundred entriesfrom 10 car clubs [ChryslerO.C.C,, Sydney Tech. C.C,,NSWRRC, NSW Hill ClimbClub, Holden Sporting C.C.,Volvo SCC, Fishers Ghost CC,TSCC, ARDC and FordJ. Therewere 3 entries from our club:Martin and Trevor Oldroyd intheir sports sedan Torana, andmyself in DBS V8,

More than half the field wassports sedans, racing cars andsports racing cars, so there weresome pretty quick times, withFTD going to a single seatopen-wheeler hill climb specialat 48.6 secs (about 10 secsquicker than I can do it in myV8, with luckJ. The event waswell run, so everyone completed4 runs comfortably within thetime allowed.

Martin Oldroyd returned acreditable time of 54.5 secs withthe Torana, which was apersonal best I think; thisdespite some gear linkageproblems, Trevor drove the samecar steadily and a few secondsslower; and this time Ray was anon-combatant, but armed withcamera and tripod. We choseother cars to run against fromwithin our respective classes,then had a warm up lap from a

standing start; then 2 laps froma standing start, the flying lapbeing timed.

I ran against a sports sedanCapri which demolished me inall respects: 30 yds clear at thefirst corner from a standingstart, then I couldn't stay withhim while he was only weavingaround warming his t1'res up!My last couple of runs wereagainst an SLR 5000 whicheasily outdragged me (!Jbut heldme up through the curves.The driver of this graciously agreedto let me have the first corneron our final run, but then I blewthe advantage by spinning in

front of him.My final ignominy came

when I was beaten by a Holdenute . . . so things can only getbetter. Despite the results wehad a great day though.Seeing what can be achieved byspecial vehicles on adjustablesuspensions and racing tlresprovides an interestingcomparison for those of usrunning standard road cars.And the mere fact of drivingaround a racing circuit is mostexhilarating.

So come on the rest of you -don't be self-conscious - join inl

Oran Park South CircuitIap Dash, 16th January 1982

Organized by the UniversityCar Club, and attended by46 competitors from UCC, AlfaRomeo Owner's CC, NSWCC,Porsche CC NSW. Oh, andI almost forgot, the TSCC; butthen there was only one of usthere,.,.

Admittedly it was rainingheavily most of the day, and Iwent out with some trepidationthinking that it might even bepostponed. But no, and inretrospect I'm very glad it wasn't.For this was a great opportunityfor all of us to explore our wetweather litnits,

Most of us exceeded them atsome stage. In my own case itwas at the end of the first flyinglap, when I braked tooinsensitively at the end of themain straight and waltzed offinto the outfield. No damage,useful experience, and hopefullyone driver the wiser for it,

The rain is a great leveller.Everyone's lap times were up toL0 secs [159oJ more than their"dry" times. But I suspect thatthose cars with inherently betterhandling characteristics enj oyedsome advantage here; in myown case I was delighted withthe handling of the heavy V8which returned 9 secs slowerthan my previous best, and one"unofficial" Iap 8 secs slowerafter the rain h:d eased.

To my mind one of the mostimpressive performances camefrom a Mazda 323 [Eurosport -whatever that means) only % secslower than my own time (67.55)which was 2 secs behind FTDfPorsche 65.51J. This time Ididn't feel so badly with5 Porsches slower than me [butalso, admittedly, 5 faster!1.Obviously our club could havedone with a Ferrari or twowaving the banner.

I was interested to talk to thedriver of a 3.0litre Carrera whoclaimed he normally reached120 mph along the main straightin the dry. I think I only everget to 100-105, (although I mustadmit to being a bit scared tolook at the speedo as that leftloop looms up at the end of thestraight!). Our lap times in thewet were similar, with hisaverage better than mine, andmy unofficial best a shadeahead of his, I'm not sure whatthis suggests: perhaps thatPorsches have a bigger advantagein braking than I had thought.An1'way, this may be interestingto those of you who have pittedyourselves against the Porschecontingent, only to be knocked offby a couple of seconds or so.

In brief, the wet lap dash wasanother great day. Twice thethrill and haif the tyre wear.On Oran Park at least - Amaroowith its cambers and wallsmight be another story . . .

See you at Oran on March 28th,

Extra wide wheelscan sometimes helP!
